buffer-modified-p is not the only parameter affected by juggling around
the local variables. There will be undo history,
buffer-chars-modified-tick, before/after-change-hooks triggered by
`org-preserve-local-variables', etc.

However, I do not see any obvious way how your proposed change can
negatively affect all the above. Feel free to propose a patch.

Best,
Ihor
